World Cup '06

It's on! There's more to life than politics, no? As long as I get to give you my opinion, it's all good.

Germany 4, Costa Rica 2. A comfortable win for the hosts, but some weakness ... if Costa Rice can score two how many will Brazil score? The Ticos still have hope, considering the following result from the same group:

Ecuador 2, Poland 0. What a strange game. Poland controls the pace of the game, has the better organized offense, can't score, but bounced two off the framework. Not to take anything away from the Ecuador team (what a great moment for that little country!) as they showed skills the Poles couldn't match. The race for second place in group A is still wide open. Who would think the Costa Rica - Ecuador match would be so important?
